FUNCTIONSMalic Acid, sometimes known as the ‘apple acid,'
has been used traditionally in a wide variety of
conditions including gout, rheumatism and jaundice.
While studies have not yet determined the role it may
play with these conditions, it has been established
that malic acid is a naturally occurring organic acid
that is involved in the process of manufacturing ATP
from food.
Magnesium is one of the most essential minerals that
the body uses everyday. It is needed for protein and
fatty acid formation, generation of new cells,
activating B vitamins, relaxing muscles, clotting
blood, and forming ATP. The mineral also plays an
important role in bone formation, as well as blood
pressure regulation.
Studies have demonstrated the powerful effects of
vitamin C, which has a powerful antioxidant abilities
that can be useful in against atherogenic perioxidative
damage. This can have clinical significance in
providing protection from free radical damage to the
eyes, lungs, blood and the immune system.
Bioflavonoids are a potent class of antioxidants,
which scavenge many potentially damaging free
radicals. They are also capable of binding to metal
ions, which prevents these metals form acting as
catalysts in the body to enhance free radical
production.
One study has suggested that the use of malic acid
and magnesium supplements could have a beneficial
effect on patients with fibromyalgia. More research is
required to confirm this finding; however, many
practitioners have found it to be useful to support the
healthy structure and function of the immune and
skeletal systems.

INDICATIONSMalic Acid + Magnesium tablets may be a useful
dietary supplement for individuals who wish to take
advantage of the benefits of malic acid and
magnesium.
